  1. The simple difference between Facts (which News should be alone) and Opinion is not known to most. They don't know there is a fine but extremly important difference. 1) One is fact or reality what happened or what is - the truth for a better word - and there is only one version of it all other variations are misinformation or lies if you prefer. Informations which are not truthful or also contain "views" (see next paragraph) which were either keept secret, changed or only partial given or worse completly made up. THIS IS FREEDOM OF INFORMATION. Getting the full, unchanged, honest information without changes, additions or omissions. 2) The other is a view on those facts, an interpretation, an opinion on those facts and how to proceed from there, what to do next, how to react to it or an evaluation how bad/good this is. There is only one version of facts out there, but everyone of us can have his or her own view on this or even multiple views. And linked to this is FREEDOM OF OPINION. That noone can force their opinion on you. FREEDOM OF SPEECH. also guarantees you that you can say your opinion without getting punishment for it. But this is NOT giving you the rigth to lie or manipulate about the facts (see first paragraph). What's important here is: If you disagree with the opinion of someone else, it's a disagreement, not a lie. And since everyone is free to have his or her own opinion you can only try to argue/convince them otherwise. But lying has nothing to do with it (unless the person actually lies about the facts). And channels like Fox or Newsmax who call themselves "News"-Channels are actually Opinion-Channels. And they don't want you to know this fine difference. They want you to think both is the same and with that ... that the facts have different versions which is never the case. And to make you attack everyone who disagrees with your opinion by making you feel attacked on the facts. They want to have THEIR version of the facts ... so you get an opinion/view to THEIR liking. This is the great manipulation. And why do we know this? Well because channels like Fox have argued before courts with this excuse. They actually admitting before a judge, that they are only giving opinions (#2) not facts (#1) ... but they call it "News". Legally this get them off any kind of repercussions because well Freedom of Opinion. See how this connects now. If people don't see the difference the "News"-channels and people like Tucker Carlson got away scot free because they tell you their opinion (#2) and you think it's facts (#1). Another problem is: There are a lot of rights for opinions (#2) but there are no strong protections for facts/the truth (#1). There is no punishment for lying (besides lying to courts), there is not even a right for truth. The only point when courts make a ruling on this is when someone has a financial damage from a lie, or another disadvantage or any of the other rights is hurt. But the truth has very little protection. And I think it desperatly needs some. My suggestion is introduce a new human right: The Right for Truth Giving all people a right to know the truth and make all people responsible for the lies they tell if they lie (because they hurt the rights of other people). And with the status as human right, it can limit and override the Freedom of Speech meaning you can have any opinion you want, but you have no right to lie to others. If you do you are fully responsible for the consequences.
